This table provides information on the proportion of the population aged 65 in three different years (1988, 2000, 2030) in three regions of the world.
The table shows that the proportion of the population aged 65 has increased between 1988 and 2000.
However, the change is less pronounced in some regions than in others.
For example, in the United Kingdom, we see that 14. 23% of people were already 65 years old in 1988, which increased to 14. 89% by 2000, while in Germany, 20. 45% of people were already 65 years old in 2000, but this increased to 25. 32% by 2000.
It is also noticeable that between 2000 and 2030 the increase in the 65-year old population in the UK will increase dramatically, from 14. 89% to 20. 35%.
The most striking feature of the table is that by 2030 the proportion of the population aged 65 will be higher in Canada, Germany and the UK, although it was lower in 1988.
